About this Podcast:
Academia has a 'wicked problem' - actually, it has several. Welcome to Under Review, the podcast where I give guests an opportunity to stop tweaking the edges and start reimagining a future where things might work better. What would stay, what would we build from scratch, and what needs throwing into the Under Review rubbish bin? It’s time to put the system ‘under review'.I’m Andy Tattersall and I’m a research communications consultant and in this podcast I will speak to some of the sector’s boldest thinkers to bring us their most radical, left-field and blue sky ideas for change.
